Today's been one of those days where no one spectaculary good thing happened and not even everything worked out in the best possible way, but yet it's still been a really good day. Though any day I get free pizza at a club meeting is a good day! Actually I take that back, two very cool things happened. One is an kicken rad penguin cup my mom got me for St. Nicholas day, and then the other being the skill assessment test in my social dance class got cancelled and everyone got an A. I would have gotten a 100 on it anyways (it's a 1000 level dance class for crying out loud) but now I can get up at 10 instead of 6:30 on Wednesday.
Speaking of dance class, I can't remember how much I wrote about it on here. Which isn't surprising since I can't remember what I even ate on Saturday. Anyways, it's my first non-technical elective I've gotten to take in college (yay Engineering!) and I figured it'd be fun since I love dancing. It covers Foxtrot, Waltz, Mambo, Rumba, and Swing, and has more girls in it than my last 3 semesters combined. Learned quite a bit, although it goes REALLY slowly. I learned as much in one hour of swing club instruction as we would cover in 4 hours of class. Still it was a fun easy class, which is exactly what I'd be looking for in something that starts at the godawful hour of 8:30 in the morning.
In between writing the proof to the Extremum Theorem a dozen times over the weekend to study for my math test today, I managed to get the tree decorated. It's a Mexican Christmas tree, which I have to give credit to Alyson for thinking of that great idea. Here's a shot of just the lights as well.
I also went back to the 80's Friday night, to not only celebrate the birthday of one of my friends, but it also happened to be my half-birthday. ::cue picture of me with a bunch of hot girls:: 80's pop is freakin awesome!
America: The Book was named Book of the Year today. My roommate got it for his birthday so I read through it and whole heartedly agree with that assesement. It's spot on in so many cases. Particulary, in regardess to the media: "'Was the president successful in convincing the country?' Who gives a crap? Why not tell us if what he said was true"
I got this book awesome book called Hardware Hacking for Geeks today. Hardware Hacking for Cool Jocks was all sold out. Who would have known?
